I woke up this morning, and plugged into my work computer and checked my employee manual. Today is a holiday for my company. For most of the companies I've worked for in the past, I never had this holiday off.
I sort of remember having this holiday off last year, but I guess I just forgot.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
I'm off to see the ballet, Don Quixote (Full-Length) at SF Ballet.
We're going to the matinee, and then we'll probably go to Max's Cafe for dinner. This is my first time dining out while on the new diet. It's going to be interesting. I'm planning to order a green salad with a low fat dressing, and then order a pastrami sandwich and only eat half of it.
I hate being on a diet and eating out, but I've got to learn to eat healthily and small while having a meal out. A friend of mine said, a doggie bag is a girl's and any dieter's best friend. You can order a full meal, and have half at the restaurant and take the rest home for another meal. It's like eating out twice.

I know you'll be heartbroken about this news, The Storybook Romance Comes To An End For Barbie And Ken.
Barbie and Ken are breaking up, but Barbie is no fool. She's already got her safety raft guy lined up, and his name is Blaine the Australian boogie boarder.
I think Barbie is going through a major mid life crisis, and dumping Ken who was always a little too swish. There were all those rumours that Ken was too narcissistic anyway, and playing both sides of the field. Who needs that? So Barbie got smart and rediscovered her surfer girl roots, and turned into "Cali Girl Barbie". And what better for a surfer girl than an Aussie boy. Them Aussie boys totally know their surf.

So I have my first job interview next Tuesday. Oh my god, I am so nervous. I haven't had a job interview in four years, not since year 2000 and I am so out of practice.
I'm not sure if this job is quite the right fit for me, but at least they called me. The job sounds interesting, and I'm trying to view this interview as an opportunity to practice my interviewing skills.
One of the jobs I ended up in, I went into the interview thinking I didn't really want the job but that it would be good interview practice. The person I interviewed with at the end said I could have the job that night and I could name my price. Never had that happen before. I really enjoyed that job too for awhile, and when I left I was genuinely sorry to be leaving. Those were the good old days back in 1998.
I wrote out what I wanted in a new job a few days ago, but I'm going to review and rewrite my list again just to make sure. The job is in downtown San Francisco, and I was wishing I could work downtown again. It's a good sign isn't it?
